We took a quick trip to the pet store today for two reason: one because Bella needed dog food and two because, right now, the pet store is practically Disney World for our dog loving daughter.
Anyway, we stayed about 30 minutes- watched a yellow lab get a haircut, tapped on the glass of every fish tank in the entire store, said "hi" to every bird, and even got to meet a puppy named Whitney. We left with a bag of dog food, a muzzle so we could attempt to trim Bella's unruly nails, and a bag of treats we picked up as a special surprise from the "Treat Bar"- a salad bar of sorts filled with dog treats that look much more like cookies and other yummy snacks than the milk bone dog bones we are use to giving Bella.
Well, we got home and Adam and I went right to work trying to get Bella in her muzzle so we could begin the arduous task of trimming her nails. I was fed up paying the 15 dollars every month to get her nails professionally trimmed so we needed the reinforcement of the muzzle to try and ward off the loss of a limb during the process.
Halfway through the nail clipping, Adam and I both realized we had completely forgotten about Avery and knew the silence was a bad sign. I ran into the study and found her eating the dog treats that I had placed on our kitchen counter (how she got them down from there is still baffling to me). What had she gone for- a cookie sandwich of sorts complete with white icing between the two pieces. When I walked in she had pulled the treat apart like an Oreo and had the "dog icing" all over her upper lip.
Kids..... you gotta love em.
Blessings,
Katie
